I managed to start JBOSS service through a shell script running locally inside the server.
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
{
sh /jboss-6.1.0.Final/bin/run.sh -c server1 -g app1 -u x.x.x.x -b x.x.x.x -Djboss.messaging.ServerPeerID=1 &
}; fi
My problem is I am able to start the service and found the application working, but once the script finishes running, it is not returning to shell ($ prompt) back and keep on hanging there forever. When I run the same command directly (without script), after the command finishes running, on hitting Enter key, I can get my $ prompt and I shall do other works.
Can someone tell me what I am missing in my code so that I can return back to my $ prompt.
Remove & from the shell script. Also remove {} from if block , no need.

Due to some issues I wont elaborate here to not waste time, I made a bash script which will ping google every 10 minutes and if there is a response it will keep the loop running and if not then the PC will restart. After a lot of hurdle I have been able to make the script and also make it start on bootup. However the issue is that i want to see the results on the terminal, meaning I want to keep monitoring it but the terminal does not open on bootup. But it does open if I run it as ./net.sh.
The script is running on startup, that much I know because I use another script to open an application and it works flawlessly.

The contents of my net.sh bash script are
#! /bin/bash
xfce4-terminal &
sleep 30
while true
do
ping -c1 google.com
if [ $? == 0 ]; then
echo "Ping Sucessful. The Device will Continue Operating"
sleep 600
else
systemctl reboot
fi
done
I have put the scripts in /usr/bin and inserted the scripts for startup at boot in /etc/rc.local
So I did some further research and with help from reddit I realized that the reason I couldnt get it to show on terminal was because the script was starting on bootup but I needed it to start after user login. So I added the script on startup application (which can be found searching on start menu if thats whats it called). But it was still giving issues so I divided the script in two parts.
I put the net.sh script on startup and directed that script to open my main script which i named net_loop.sh
This is how the net.sh script looks
#! /bin/bash
sleep 20
xfce4-terminal -e usr/bin/net_loop.sh
And the net_loop.sh
#! /bin/bash
while true
do
ping -c1 google.com
if [ $? == 0 ]; then
echo "Ping Sucessful. The Device will Continue Operating"
sleep 600
else
systemctl reboot
fi
done
The results are the results of the net_loop.sh script are open in another terminal.
Note: I used help from this thread
If minute interval is usable why not use "cron" to start your?
$> crontab –e
or
$> sudo crontab –e
I have a unix script that invokes another script on a remote unix server.
amongst other commands i am stopping a service. The stop command essentially translates to
ssh -t -t -q ${AEM_USER}#${SERVERIP} 'bash -l -c "service aem stop"'
The service is getting stopped but when i start back the service it just creates the .pid file and does not perform the start up. When i run the command for start i.e.
ssh -t -t -q ${AEM_USER}#${SERVERIP} 'bash -l -c "service aem start"'
it does not show any error. On going to the server and checking the status
service aemauthor status
Below message is displayed
aem dead but pid file exists
Also when starting the service by logging in to the server, it works as expected along with the message
Removing stale pidfile (pid: 8701)
Starting aem
We don't know the details of the service script of aem.
I guess the problem is related to the SIGHUP signal. When we log off from a shell or disconnect from ssh, the OS will send HUP signal to all processes that started in this terminated shell. If the process didn't handle the HUP signal, it would exit by default.
When we run a command via ssh remotely, the process started by this command will receive HUP signal after ssh session is terminated.
We can use the nohup command to ignore the HUP signal.
You can try
ssh -t -t -q ${AEM_USER}#${SERVERIP} 'bash -l -c "nohup service aem start"'
If it works, you can use nohup command to start aem in the service script.
As mentioned at the stale pidfile syndrome, there are different reasons for pidfiles getting stalled, like for instance some issues with the way your handles its removal when the process exits... but considering your only experiencing when running remotely, I would guess it might be related to what is being loaded or not by your profile... check the most voted solid answer at the post below for some insights:
Why Does SSH Remote Command Get Fewer Environment Variables
As described in the comments of the mentioned post, you can try sourcing /etc/profile or ~/.bash_profile before executing your script to test it, or even trying to execute env locally and remotelly to compare variables that are being sourced or not.
So I've tried googling and reading a few questions on here as well as elsewhere and I can't seem to find an answer.
I'm using Jenkins and executing a shell script to scp a .jar file to a server and then sshing in, running the build, and then exiting out of the server. However, I cannot get out of that server for the life of me. This is what I'm running, minus the sensitive information:
ssh root#x.x.x.x 'killall -9 java; nohup java -jar /root/project.jar -prod &; exit'
I've tried doing && exit, exit;, but none of it will get me out of the server and jenkins just spins for ever. So the Jenkins build never actually finishes.
Any help would be sweet! I appreciate it.
So I just took off the exit and ran a ssh -f root#x.x.x.x before the command and it worked. The -f just runs the ssh command in the background so Jenkins isn't sitting around waiting.
Usual way of starting a command and sending it to background is nohup command &
Try this. This is working for me. Read the source for more information.
nohup some-background-task &> /dev/null # No space between & and > !
Example :
ssh root#x.x.x.x 'killall -9 java; nohup java -jar /root/project.jar -prod &> /dev/null'
no need exit keyword

i used this bash script to check services running or not if running the script will exit if else it will run another script which gona execute some commands
and once done it will be exit
my issue is when i run my script manuly its works fine but when i run it with cron its not running and not executed correctly here is my script
#!/bin/sh
SERVICE='loop2.sh'
if ps ax | grep -v grep | grep $SERVICE > /dev/null
then
echo "$SERVICE service running, everything is fine"
else
/home//www/loop2.sh
fi
any adjust to my script to be working fine in cron
You're not being very specific. What error are you seeing ?
Note that processes run under cron with a cut-down environment. In particular environment variables such as PATH will be much reduced from your interactive shell.
log your scripts stdout/stderr e.g. myscript 2>&1 >/tmp/script.log
check your environment is as expected via the env command in your script
does this script really do what you want ? And interact with cron how you wish ? If your service isn't running you spawn a new one, but I'd expect you to put it in the background, thus making it a daemon and not a (grand)child of the cron process
is your script executable by whichever user it's executed by under cron ?
I have a glassfish install and I would like to have a simple terminal command checking if it's running. If it is, it will shutdown the process. Or if it not running, it will start the server.
To start the server I can enter:
/Applications/NetBeans/glassfish-3.1.1/bin/./asadmin start-domain domain
To stop the server I can enter:
/Applications/NetBeans/glassfish-3.1.1/bin/.asadmin stop-domain domain
I will would like to make a simple Alfred.app script than can start this domain if it's not running, or stop it if it's running.
One way to do this is to note in a file the process ID of the server when it starts, and have another script check to see if that process is running.
For example, script A (to run the server unconditionally):
#!/bin/sh
/Applications/NetBeans/glassfish-3.1.1/bin/./asadmin start-domain domain
# file name is arbitrary
pgrep whateverTheProcessNameIs > ~/.glassfish-server.pid
And in script B:
#!/bin/sh
pid=`pgrep -F ~/.glassfish-server.pid` # file chosen in script A
if [ "x$pid" = "x" ] ; then
# process has died; restart by running script A
/path/to/scriptA
fi
Note that only Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) installs pgrep by default; otherwise you'd have to use some other method (like parsing ps output) to see what processes are running.
As far as how to run this check periodically, there are various ways. I'm assuming Alfred will run any script that is executable (chmod +x scriptA scriptB) but I don't know for sure.
